Summary

Did you know that O. Henry's real name was William Sydney Porter? He had many pseudonyms, but is mostly known as O. Henry. He wrote over 300 stories and is known for playfully writing a twist at the end. Most of them are based in New York, with characters being an average Joe. A census at the time stated there were about four million individuals living in NYC at the time, and that is how this volume of short stories received its name. Like the characters in his stories, his life was full of surprising twists and turns, from career jumping in the search for his ultimate passion to accepting his flaws and following his heart. The name he created for himself remains his legacy to this day, as his work is so highly regarded as classics. An award is named after him for outstanding short stories and numerous media have been produced, inspired by his various stories.
